Yeah, it is. I think I've fixed them all there. I need to see about updating the entire board, but that will take a little longer.

If you just can't wait, any link you see that starts with http://www.merkurclub.com/forum should be replaced with http://forum.merkurclub.com/forum.

Front Wheel Bearing Removal and Replacement - edit/update

Post by CV12Steve »

In the Front Wheel Bearing Removal and Replacement thread the opening post states "You'll have to remove the ball joint (LCA) and the strut from the spindle to get access to the nut." Use a thin-wall 1 5/8" socket and you can R&R the spindle with the strut in place.

Bolt-on Mods
Stripped Torx Removal

A "what not to do" could be fun and educational

I know a lot of these could just be searched and viewed elsewhere but I still see these questions asked and it would be nice to have it in one place.
